A driver tried to hit me today.

Maybe that's not true - maybe they weren't looking. Maybe they didn't realize that a left arm pointing left signals a left turn. Maybe they don't understand why the traffic law says not to pass at intersections. Maybe they think accelerating into an intersection where they have a stop sign is a good idea.

You are putting lives at risk every time you get behind a steering will. If it's raining, drive slower because visibility in the rain sucks. I always use lights and wear high vis jackets in the rain. It's not that you can't see me, it's that you don't care about my life.

Want to prove that you care about lives? Don't drive. Chances are that you do, so drive slower. Follow traffic safety laws. Be kind to cyclists. Disable reckless drivers' vehicles...

@chaspinrad

Boosts and favorites don't seem to carry an adequate response to posts like this. Glad you made it home okay, friend. But I think your assessment of drivers is generally right, and that just really sucks.
